Eruption

Guitar World - February 1990
Issue No. 073
Interview with Eddie Van Halen:

"GW - What if you were a kid today, and there's already an Edward Van Halen out there. What would you do to avoid sounding like a carbon copy?"

"Van Halen - I mean, I don't know what scales are - I just play what sounds right to me. I never had a lesson in my life. So, this scale or that scale, I don't know. To me, you have 12 notes to work with, and whatever configuration you use is up to you."

This guitar solo is so cool I played it twice, but changed it up a little the second time.

And yes, I'm still 13..

[fabiofmc1997]

awesome!

[123rebel456]

awesome cover, really similar to the original. out of the delay obviously.

[TheCtrlaltdelband]

thats not the same as eruption. but you know what? ITS FUCKING BETTER

[ShittyVocalist]

amazing playing although i think taking the time to reach your hand down and use the whammy bar takes away from the playing. bending the strings while not producing exactly the same sound would sound better. aside form that amazing guitar work. 10/5

[judymybaby]

[Marchuard11]
